    Needs of the AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY

    Unlock the full potential of logistics to transform your automotive business. Optimize your workflow and significantly reduce costs by on-time delivery and close collaboration with your suppliers. BizBloqs has all the tools and features to make your life a lot easier!

    On-time delivery

    BizBloqs deliver robust and agile operational solutions designed to meet the unique just-in-time requirements of the Automotive industry. Work with your bills of material as usual while you streamline your processes digitally.

    Our platform integrates easily with specialist industry software and material handling systems to provide a single interface and complete control over your operations.

    BizBloqs has features like kitting, EDI and the perfect timing of printing shipping labels amongst many other capabilities.

    Manage the flow of materials through production and warehousing facilities with full traceability and get real time visibility of stock levels and locations. Transform your quality process to integrate with your inventory management, keeping perfect track of usuable stock and their quality records.

    Optimize operations by managing stocks throughout production

    Identify and execute the most efficient way to stock work in process (WIP) and enjoy real-time access to key milestones in the delivery cycle time (unloaded, assembled, packaged, and ready to ship).

    We provide the tools to manage the high SKU counts and complex picking requirements such as kitting, that are a key attribute of the Automotive industry.

    BizBloqs allows Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive suppliers to compete effectively and forge collaborative links with fellow suppliers and valued customers to optimise operations.

    What Automotive operators run into

    The problem

    Part numbers supersede each other and the old revision keeps getting picked

    WMS

    Revision-Aware Item Control

    Superseded parts are blocked at pick and the valid revision is proposed in its place, so the wrong version never leaves the building

    Serialised components cannot be traced back to the vehicle they went into

    WMS

    Serial-Level Traceability

    Serials captured at receipt and carried through every movement, giving a two-way trace between supplier batch and delivered assembly

    Aftermarket orders and OEM line-feed compete for the same stock

    OMS

    Channel Allocation Rules

    Stock reserved by channel priority, so an aftermarket order can never consume the buffer protecting the production line

    Kits and repair sets are assembled ad hoc and never reconcile

    WMS

    Kitting and Sub-Assembly

    Kits built against a defined structure, consuming components and producing a countable finished item with its own stock record

    Supplier deliveries arrive without usable advance notice

    Integration

    ASN and EDI Inbound

    Advance shipping notices received electronically and reconciled against the physical receipt, with discrepancies logged automatically

    Not sure which solution fits you?

    Work through the 18-point WMS Requirements Checklist and your answers point to SME, SME+ or Enterprise.

    We needed a better, more transparent and practical system for our incoming and outgoing product flow. A direct overview in our stock and all our logistics movements was really a must. BizBloqs helped us from the start!

    In addition to a scan procedure with EDI integration, BizBloqs has set up an entire production system for us. Production planning can provide direct instructions and as soon as they are ready, it all arrives in the OMS. This gives us a larger production capacity and a drastic reduction of the picking mistakes in dispatching.
